Hi, I just got back from my Dr. - we had a long talk about my cancer and the treatments I have received. To make a long story short - tomorrow is my LAST Taxol!!! There are no words to describe how I feel right now! I only have to do this one more time! Radiation will start early July. Then she said something that surprised me. She said I should consider myself cancer free. Oh how I want to believe that! Can't believe I've gotten this far.... thanks to you all for helping me.. I have a ways to go I know that but I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. Thanks again for all your prayers...Susan

    Hi Susan,

    Do I remember correctly? You had a LONG drive for radiation - four hours?

    If I have the right person :-) I see you must have kept on schedule - good for you!

    Hi, congrats, I know how good it feels. I had my last Taxol on May 7th. I start radiation the first week in June. My doctor told me the same thing that he knew the cancer was gone and that I did not need any additional testing. I have to just trust that what he said is true and begin my journey thru radiation. God Bless and keep in touch. Love, LaVerne
